The Presidents of American Fiction is a comprehensive exploration of the most influential fictionalized accounts of the presidency in American literature, history, and political science from the early 19th century to the present day. It examines the changing perceptions of the presidency and its holders, particularly in the context of recent administrations such as those of Obama and Trump. Michael J. Blouin explores narratives involving fictional presidents, ranging from the supposedly factual to the fantastical, within their distinct literary and historical moments. Representative texts include works by James Fenimore Cooper, Gore Vidal, and Philip Roth, among others. Through detailed readings, the book examines the presidency as a complex and ever-evolving trope, enhancing our appreciation of American literature's inextricable link with American politics.
